One's power to do anything has little to do with caring. Understand, it's natural that one can't help but care despite being powerless, at times. Such is the case with the death of a loved one, for instance. When a person like me feels passionately that Freedom can help us all, he can and does care from afar, though quite powerless. Of course, I'm with ya in the sense that there is only so much caring to go around...only so much sleep to lose for caring...if a bus crashes in switzerland killing 17 people, I'm rather blase' about it. If one crashes in front of me on the highway here in the USA, I'd get very caring...but it's not just because I can do something about it, it's because it's personal. If something afar involves my strongly held beliefs, I can care no matter how far away or how powerless I am. At least that's my experience. I just want folks to know they can care about, and try to do something about, what they wish, wherever there is Freedom, which Works, Dan B Dan B
